Has anyone seen any recent pics of the Hanford bulls? Are there any big ones left out there?

This morning I saw 14 bulls in one location.  Not giant at all...right now.   :chuckle:
And somewhere around 150 cows in 4 different groups.

There were plenty of rather large bulls seen in the fall and winter.

Worked out there for 32 years. There are tons of elk out there. As many as there has ever been. The real big boys spend most of their time now down by the river and only leave it to rut.

This is from an FB page, pretty sure it's Hanford. Screenshot of a grainy pic to begin with.

That's the pic I was looking for. I saw it on someone's phone the other day. He was told it was from last year and wanted to know if anyone has seen that bull up close. It looks enormous!

I went thru there 3 weeks ago. Saw 5 diffrent herds. Could make out some racks. Didnt have binos thou. Best guess in them 5 herds was 500+ animals. Never seen that many before

I don't have pics but I saw a huge non-typical last summer. All the bulls out there are living to maturity so the average bull you see is a Washington stud. Their only predator is automobiles  :chuckle:
